Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order to regularize the services of employees working under a scheme sponsored by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research was violative of their rights, as the posts were co-terminus with the scheme and could not be made permanent. The Court modified the High Court's direction, stating that the employees should be paid according to the scale of pay for the posts they are currently occupying. The appeal was disposed of without costs.
